This Is What A $75,000 Wedding Cake Looks Like

Rapper Gucci Mane got married last week, and if you expected a man who writes lyrics like "gotta get that green paper stacking" and "million dolla worth of game" to throw a party that was anything but insanely lavish, you're off your rocker. Mane's $1.7 million wedding to singer Keyshia Ka'Oir was the definition of extra — the dress, the flowers, and that $75,000 cake.

Yes, you read that right: Their cake, which was more than 10-feet tall, cost $75,000 — but according to TMZ, they newlyweds didn't even have to pick up the tab. That came courtesy of the execs at BET; the site filmed the pair's nuptials for a 10-episode miniseries.

The four-tier cake, which was designed by Miami-based Edda's Cake Designs, took three months to plan and a full three days to bake. Each layer was stacked with one or two different flavors — red velvet, amaretto, carrot, banana nut, and Jamaican rum as an ode to Ka-Oir's home country. Each one was covered in edible sugar flowers — 8,000 total — and draped with 2,500 Swarovski crystals to fit the Diamonds and Crystals theme.

The thing was so massive, Edda's threw in a sword to cut it. But no matter how you slice it, the cake is going to be hard to top.
